smoothly without household ammonia.
1t is very cheap, and for cleansing pur-
poses is invaluable A little of it softens
the water and makes it easier to wash
blankets; it takes out grease, removes
stains from paint and carpets, cleans
brushes. brightens jewelry and sill metals.
Always dilute it well in water. Aromatic
ammonia is most useful household
remedy. Half teaspoonful taken in
half tumbler of water is far better for
faintness than alcoholic stimulants. In
the temperance hospital in London it is
used with the best results. 1t was used
freely by Greely's Arctic party for keep
ing up circulation. 1t is relief in ner-
yous headache and heart disturbances.
l have seen il restore person pros
trated by the fumes of gas, and the re-
covery was witho ut bad after effects. As
IN the case of ali home dosing, aromatic
ammonia should be used sparingly, and
kept out of the baby's eyes.
REMEDY FOE RHEUMATISM.
Celery root or celeriac is considered
remedy for rheumatism. Prepared in
this manner it will be an acceptable dish,
even should 1t fail As an anti-gout specific:
Wash three roots of celeriac and boil for
twenty minutes; when cool, peel and
slice them, boil one mint of rich milk
and, when cool. pour it over a teaspoon
full of melted butter and beat we'll; add
salt and a soupcon of cayenne pepper;
pour over the sliced celeriac and simmer
for twenty minutes. Serve hot.
TO GET RID OF WARTS.
l removed formidable wart from my
little daughters hand by an application
of simple lemon Juice, which is an in
fallible remedy. The wart requires sat
urating with the juice once or twice day
for three or four days, or about week in
some cases. The wart diminishes gradual
ly and disappears altogether, without
pain and leaving no mark, and without
mourning any of the risks mentioned in
connection with the professional process.
DROP GINGER COOKIES.

The Great Ship Builders Life Brought to

The Great Ship Builders Life Brought to a
Close.
NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-John Beach the
great ship-builder, died at IS o'clock this
morning. The family remained up with
Mr.. Roach until l o'clock this morning,
with the exception of Garrett N. Roach.
He remained on watch with the nurses.
DR.. Taylor called at o'clock this morn
ing. He detected the approach of death
and at dice informed the family that
Mr.. Roach had but few hours to live.
The dying man sank slowly. He lost
consciousness about 7:30. His end was
unmarked by struggle. In the room sur
rounding the couch of the dying man
were Mr.. and Mrs. William +. McPhear-
son, of Philadelphia; John B. Roach, Gar
ret N. Roach, Miss Emily Roach, John
Walton, nephew, Mrs. Roach and three
grandchildren. The date of the funeral
has not been decided upon. 1t will take

member of the church. The interment
will be in the family plot at Greenwood
cemetery.

dry and harsh, steam the nostrils more

to be slowly swallowed, and repeated three
or four times daily.
The diet should be light and laxative in
summer, consisting mainly of green food
and mashes, and in winter scalded oats.
hnseed gruels, roots and warm mashes.
ALLOW free access to pure, cold water. If
the bowels rem ain costive, give copious
warm water injections every three or
four hours until relieved. During the
treatment the animal should have walk
ing exercise for a short time daily when
the weather is suitable. When recovery
is slow 1t may frequently be FASTENED by
mildly stimulating tonics, as an ounce
each OF powdered gentian and sweet
spirits of nitre given two or three times
day IN a bottle of ale or of cold wa
ter.
Since cold can usually be avoided by
proper attention to the care of the horse,
1t saves much needless trouble, and is
safer, to take all reasonable precautions
to prevent colds. Stables should at sill
times be dry, warm, light ana clean, free
from direct drafts of air, but at the same
well ventilated.
During damp, or windy weather horse
after exercise, whether stopped on the
road or placed in the stable, should have
warm blanket applied. Standing I'M
covered, even for few minutes, on the
road, is often sufficient to contract Sc
we're cold. A blanket for the purpose
should always be carried at this season of
the year, to have ready for use when nee
essary.
Upon putting the horse in the stable,
after drive, blanket should usually be
applied for an hour or two, even if the
animal does not appear warm. When
exercised so as to be perspiring freely, or
much fatigued, it should be vigorously
rubbed down" until dry before applying
the blanket. For a horse that is blank ct
ed in the stable or has been clipped, even
greater precautions are necessary, since
he will more readily take cold. Horses
at pasture should be taken up or provid
ed shelter on wet or windy nights of au-
tumn and winter. When an animal has
been unavoidably exposed, severe cold
may frequently be warded off by thor
oughly rubbing down" at night, apply
ing blanket and giving hot mash
with two ounces of ginger or % or &c
drops of tincture of aconite, with an ounce
of nitre.
In such cases special care is needed fol
the next two or three days, that fresh
cold is not added to system already
weakened by the first attack.

There are matters whose existence
Do no count for much resistance,
Or for wear:
On the advent of an issue.

With its iron-clad constitution,

When 1t jars against q trial

There's the definite assertion
That def1es all controversion,
Till its tried:
When some intellect sagacious
Shows the maker is m-ndacious,
Ana he he'd.
There's the friendly protestation
OF devotion sans ces -ation

An explosive one Ignition

And the golden husd ideal

When the thrill is madiy dancing
Through the nerves;
And the subsequent revealing

And the phisosophic plaster
You apply to this disaster

INDIGNANT PEANUT EATERS.
They Have Been Imposed Upon by the
"Pop'' Variety.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-Strange as it may
seem, the chief grievance of New Workers
is not the heat, nor the telegraph wires
overhead, nor even the want of strength
and size of the Coney Island beer, the
usual topics of midsummer Indignation.
Pop peanuts are the great topic Of de-
nunciatiDn at present. New Workers pay
about $500, 900 for, peanuts every year,
and In the summer especially, Coney
Island, Rockaway, Glen Island, excurs-
ions, race tracks, baseball grounds and
picnics all want big supplies.
Well, some rascal has got hold OF all
the pop peanuts of Virginia and has
sent them here. Pops, is the name
given to the peanuts light enough To be
blown out of the sorting mill when the
crops are prepared for market. They
look sound and plump, but they contain
only useless. shriveled kernels or air.
All the consumer obtains in breaking
them is an audible pop hence their
name. If there is anything which the
ordinary frequenter to the seaside resorts
and the races, baseball matches, etc.,
bankers after it is peanuts. So when, in
stead of the plump, sweet nut, he finds
only a pop he grows indignant and
makes a row.
1t is estimated that of twenty eight
vendors of peanuts on the baseball
grounds ut, st. George, the other day,
twenty-three sold ''pops,n The pops
sell for 50. 90 a bag; good peanuts for So.
The vendors charge the same at retail for
each.

manned a short time. They were en-
gagged in selling alleged Indian remedies.
A dirtier lot could not be imagined, nor
n more ungainly specimen of humanity
conceived than the chief. While they
were there Miss Newman became greatly
interested in the band, and especially its
leader. But very little attention was
paid to it by her friends, who supposed
the interest to arise from a sentimental
freak caused by reading of the wrongs of
poor 10. When the tribe left the city
the young lady also disappeared, leaving
no word to indicate where she was going
or the cause for her disappearance.
Time dragged on, and no news of the
runaway was received, and her parents
began to despair. Friday Mr.. Neumann
received notice that his daughter v

now learned that the infatuated girl fol-
lowed the tribe in their wanderings
throughout the southern part of the state,
and finally took up her abode with them.
This was followed by the marriage Tues
day. Her parents are besides themselves
with grief, and If the Infatuated father
can get within reaching distance of Mr..
Utowaum there will be one good Indian
soon after.
The affair has created ne end Of talk,
as is natural it would. Sympathy is en-
tirely with the parents, who are well-to-
do residents of the city.
